How Did I Die in "The Hunger Games" Series? Quiz

Answer: I got caught in a trap set by a Career, and then I was stabbed with a spear

My name was Rue, and I was only twelve years old when I was selected to be the tribute from District 11. I loved to climb trees, to listen to birds' songs, and to sing myself. I became Katniss's ally after I saved her life by warning her about a nest of tracker jackers above her, which she was able to use to escape the Careers. When I died, Katniss sang to me and covered me with flowers.

Answer: I was stung by a swarm of poisonous bugs called tracker jackers

My name was Glimmer, and I was a strong and merciless tribute from District 1. Illustrating my character, my tribute token, a ring, was confiscated when the Gamemakers discovered it contained a poisonous spike: like it, I was beautiful and glamorous on the outside, but deadly on the inside.

Answer: Katniss shot me with an arrow, out of pity

My name is Cato, and I volunteered to be the male tribute from District 2. I led the Career pack, ruthlessly killed many tributes in the Games, and was the last tribute to die in the arena. One of the final things I said, though, illustrated how I was not really an antagonist but rather a pathetic and pitiful victim: "One more kill.

It's the only thing I know how to do. Bring pride to my district. Not that it matters."

Answer: I was executed by my former bosses in the Capitol

My name was Seneca Crane, and I ran the 72nd, 73rd, and 74th Hunger Games. When I allowed both Peeta Mellark and Katniss Everdeen to emerge as victors as opposed to letting them both die, President Snow ordered me executed.

Answer: I sacrificed myself for my allies by walking into a poisonous fog

My name is Mags, and I volunteered as tribute for the 75th Hunger Games in place of Annie Cresta, the mentally unstable wife of Finnick Odair. Finnick, who I loved like a son, had to carry me away from an advancing poisonous fog, and I was slowing him down. Thus, I bid him put me down, kissed him, and walked to my death into the fog.

Answer: I jumped in front of Peeta in order to intercept a mutated monkey

My name was never revealed, but both I and my partner, victors of previous Games, were so traumatized by the horror of our Games that we sought solace in a narcotic and addictive drug called morphling. We were in terrible physical condition, had sagging, yellow skin, and found nothing so interesting as painting.

Answer: A group of lizard-human mutts killed me while I was on a Squad 451 mission

My name was Finnick Odair, and I was a talented male tribute from District 4. I was incredibly attractive, skilled with a trident, and extraordinarily popular in the Capitol. After I won my first Games, President Snow forced me into prostitution. I fought in the second rebellion until my death; tragically, my son will never know me.

Answer: President Coin ordered a hovercraft to bomb me

My name was Primrose Everdeen, and in many ways, I was my sister's opposite: I had a talent for healing, blond hair, and a gentle, sweet, loving personality. And yet we were incredibly close. I served in the second rebellion as a medic, and it was as I was running to assist an injured child that a hovercraft with the insignia of the Capitol dropped a bomb on me.

However, the hovercraft was actually manned by rebels; it was a tactic to sway public opinion by making it seem as if the Capitol was murdering children.

Answer: Either by choking on my own blood or being crushed to death by an angry crowd

My name was Coriolanus Snow, and I was the tyrannical president of Panem until my death. In order to achieve my goals, I manipulated, I threatened, I coerced, and I murdered. I was cunning, and one might even say wise in a perverse sort of way - I understood human psychology, and was able to use it to keep myself in power. Of course, all this ultimately did me no good - my ignominious death left me no better off than the countless men, women, and children I had sent to their graves.

Answer: Katniss chose in a final act of rebellion to shoot me instead of her lifelong enemy, President Snow

My name was President Alma Coin. I was a cold-hearted, callous, power-hungry leader, and when I suggested another Hunger Games in which the children of previous Capitol leaders were to be tribute, it became clear that I was no better than my predecessor.

This, coupled with my murder of Primrose Everdeen, prompted Katniss to shoot me as I sat among a huge crowd watching her, expecting her to shoot President Snow. Thus, Katniss averted a repeat of the past, and instead faced the unknown, with hope for a better world.
